So I’ve been doing the research a lot and still just don’t know. I have a 150 gallon reef tank and everything in my tank is perfect, but some of my corals aren’t growing very well. They aren’t dying just not growing. I’ve exhausted all my options other than lighting. I’m currently running 2 coral life T-5’s and 3 coral life clip on LED lights. I’m going to upgrade my lights now. Is two lights that are 300watts a piece sufficient?

Two 300 watt Chinese fixtures would cover a 150. Is it a 4ft or 6ft tank though?
 
I have a much smaller tank but I can’t talk the AI lights up enough. Only bad thing is a tad hard/confusing on how to program/set up lighting schedule and intensities.
